More done + more leisure.
I generally use the $100-200 Codex/Claude subs, and have been blown away by the usage I get from OpenCode Go at $10/mo. At a minimum, excellent for automatically piping reviews to from Codex/Claude.
Blast from the past. I remember reading this site's A* intro when I was in college trying to use A* for our robotic's team autonomous sailboat.
Haven't been excited for a Gemini release since December. Wild to see.
Appreciate it! I plan to. To be fair, I've made small updates here and there to this one. Just no overhaul/expansion yet. Best of luck on the beta & release!
Continuing to work on https://attachedapp.com. ChatGPT validates your spirals. We help you prevent them. We're in the middle of v2 over the next few months based on everything we've learned since launching ~a year ago.…
Very cool! I made something similar a while ago for learning Mandarin Chinese. Unfortunately more basic than your Spanish version: https://dailychinesestories.com. I miss working on language learning tools. My attempts…
We're still in the early adoption phase. Betting against the internet wasn't a great idea, and betting against AI doesn't look like one either ;)
Fwiw, don't buy into all the hype that you're falling behind. Yes, AI does cool things now, but I would say the impact is still unproven past indie hackers or early-stage startups. And a lot of the esoteric setups…
Wasn't writing about major companies. That's obviously next, if we follow the trend lines.
I was also under the impression modern AI agents have moved on from just OCR'ing screenshots to leveraging native vision model capabilities.
I remember being blown away by o1-o3 family of models finally stringing together coherent agentic tool calls to write and execute scripts semi-reliably for workloads in the several minutes before they would start…
This season of Silicon Valley is getting spicy
The toggle feels useless in the desktop app. It just changes a few shortcuts?! Admittedly, I was already using Codex a bit like Claude Cowork. I'm just surprised they decided to merge threads.
Definitely. They had insanely low rates on TTS up until a month or two ago ($4.20/1M) for example, which they only recently started increasing. As their models get more competitive I'm sure prices will catch up.
Womp. Didn't see this anywhere else. No longer feels as inexpensive. Will likely just include this in the rolodex of <200k context tasks, like being one of my review agents.
Quite draining, I hope this is not what the future holds.
Not sure about Korea, but Japan's case is more interesting than simply adjusting for population: the government strongly incentivizes new buildings every few decades. There is also a culture of viewing housing as a…
I think so too. I'm an early 30s that would love to pay a fraction of the current market rates for a Tokyo-sized unit in SF.
Yep. Counterintuitively, housing in Japan depreciates unlike most of the world
So many chart crimes, but aside from that. Seems like we're seeing margin get eaten up by companies upstream of the buildout, and the costs have not been fully passed downstream yet. Eg most consumers still get…
This makes sense. Early on most of our support requests were for routine things eg login issues, but now it’s more complex: “this new genAI feature did this weird thing”
Honestly, would love to do that. Main issue is margin. Earning just enough to even consider hiring, but not nearly enough to hire someone great that will stick around. Have tried hiring a few times now, but it hasn't…
Deterministic scripts are awesome, and they certainly power my internal dashboards. But I'm a human - I will miss things. I maintain too many apps to have entire codebases in memory at this point. Or to continue…
I don't miss the days of scraping through logs or dashboards myself to troubleshoot some latency or malformed data issue that I missed conditionals for. AI is incredible at finding patterns in otherwise benign stdouts,…
